    This hurts my soul cause this place I keep going back to cause it's a local staple but I think constructive feedback is helpful for growth. The food is overly priced, the servings for vegetarians are small. $14 for a side of veggies that fit the palm of your hand is no bueno. The fettuccini pastas is very watered down with little taste. Plastic containers with hot foods also isn't great to digest. I know they can be amazing. But for vegetarians it's a miss right now

    Although I used to live in Del Mar, I'd always walk past Sbicca's unassuming storefront. It's one of many stores nestled along the street leading to Sea Grove Park. From the outside, it appears rather small, which is why I was surprised by its size when I visited; the restaurant extends deeply inwards, so it is bigger than expected. At night, the atmosphere is also very fun and lively, even on a weekday. Parking isn't fun, but street parking and (paid) structure parking are options. I came here recently for a work dinner, and I just needed to make one or two loops. And before I delve into the food, I want to give a quick shoutout for the great service we received all night! Our waiter was very diligent and attentive; he made sure to provide updates when items were stalled. Several of us had to leave early, and so he made sure to get us to-go containers so we could take our food home. Okay, now for the food! Appetizers: - Ahi Poke Wontons: 7/10. The wonton chips were crispy and not oily at all. The sweet ginger was a bit overpowering, though. - Salt & Pepper Shrimp: 6/10. I'm not a huge fan of shrimp, but these were good! A bit crispy, and very large! This was my coworker's favorite appetizer. - Grilled Steak Skewers: 8/10. Delicious! The herb marinade was subtle, but it added that extra punch to some already tender steak. I get easily icked out by beef, but the size of these bites made it easily palatable. - Crab cakes: 9/10. My favorite bite of the night!! Although the crab flavor wasn't super pronounced, it was delicious. The crispiness of the exterior paired nicely with the soft filling. I think I had like four of these by myself. Starter: - Baby gem caesar salad: 5/10. Kinda mid salad. I mean, it's good, but nothing memorable. It looks kinda sad since there was no protein. Entree: - Sesame-crusted king salmon. 8/10. Very nice presentation! I love the way they cooked their heirloom baby carrots. The shoyu butter was pleasant without being overwhelming. The salmon filet was a good size, too. Dessert: - Chocolate brownie: 9.5/10. I'm easy to please with desserts! This was so yummy! The cold vanilla ice cream and warm chocolate brownie combination is hard to mess up. Obviously, it is very sweet, but my sweet tooth loved it. Overall, I was pleasantly surprised by my experience at Sibicca. I would recommend it, and I can see myself coming back!

    Best Sunday night sunset!! I made a reservation on Open Table and they got us seated on the outdoor patio. Super nice. Heat lamp also to keep you cozy warm once the sun has set!! VINNY OUR HOST & WAITER had an attention to detail which made our celebration flow. We had appetizers, main dishes and desert. All exceptional. Loved it Excellent service and food.

    Came for brunch to celebrate my husband's birthday and had a really great time. Lovely sitting outside and the food was also very nice! Massive portion size on everything and a really creative menu as well. I was a little sad that the website mentioned one salad that I was hoping to get but they didn't have it. But absolutely love how the server and kitchen were able to customize a salad just for me. Major thank you for that! Steak Salad but with chicken instead + strawberries. It had mixed greens, corn, cherry tomatoes, red onion, avocado. There was a dressing that came on the side as well but I didn't add any because it was lovely on its own. I would say the chicken was a little bit overcooked and dry but otherwise a very flavorful salad! Farmer Burger (Sautéed wild mushrooms, grilled onions, egg, Swiss cheese, arugula lettuce & garlic aioli) Husband got this burger with a side salad and the burger itself was phenomenal! The mushroom and onion along with the meat and cheese and everything else going on was really really delicious! Chorizo Flatbread (Mexican chorizo, scrambled eggs, cheddar cheese, sliced avocado & chipotle crema) One of our friends got this with a side of bacon and he quite enjoyed it. Very large flatbread as well and it definitely looked appetizing! Benedict & Biscuits (creamy spinach, poached eggs, honey chipotle hollandaise, & breakfast potatoes) Not going to lie this meal looked really phenomenal! Quite a large portion size and those potatoes look tasty as well. I'm pretty sure it was nice because the guy actually finished everything Chilaquiles ( eggs, tortilla chips, tomatoes, red onion, avocado, crema, queso fresco & tomatillo sauce) Two people on our table actually got this and both said it was lovely. They liked how the chips were not cooked with the sauce and they were actually still crunchy. There was also extra sauce on the side which they appreciated. Both people said that they usually get soggy chilaquiles at other restaurants but this one was the perfect balance of crunchy and saucy. Churro French Toast Bites (with chocolate dipping sauce, whipped cream, seasonal berries) A friend on the table got this and shared it with her husband. Very creative concept here! I was expecting slices of bread but it turned out to be a little bits of bread that were cooked like French toast and then coated in cinnamon sugar. French toast itself was nice but I wasn't a fan of the chocolate sauce. So I personally wouldn't get this item but otherwise nice.

    I was really looking forward to happy hour and was so excited to return to Sbicca after having such a great experience previously. We already knew what we wanted to order before we even sat down. The staff was great as usual. There was a good crowd outside, and they had umbrellas set up so you're not sitting directly in the sun. That said, I was a bit disappointed this time. The food didn't taste as consistent as we both remembered. For example, the Salmon Crudo tasted a bit sweeter rather than having that lime forward flavor we were expecting. Don't get me wrong it was still good and we will continue to return! But for us, we'll probably just stick to two orders of the sliders we love so much next time.

    Great for happy hour! Food and drinks are all solid here - don't expect to be blown away but nothing will really disappoint. Good for groups. Service is friendly and good. Parking can be tough since you're so close to the beach

    Shrimp fettuccine
    Leslie L.

    My husband and I have been in Del Mar for 3 days and the food and cocktails here were by far the best we've had, by far! Happy hour menu is great! We had the bacon wrapped shrimp 10/10 shrimp fettuccine 10/10 wedge salad 10/10 fish and chips 9/10. Patio had shade and ocean sunset views. Service was top notch. 10/10 would recommend!

    The service was a bit slow at first but it picked up when we got a new bartender. Forgot his name but he was awesome. There are inside dining at the bar area. The rest are outside, either on patio in front or covered patio on the side. Cute place. Food was good but nothing to rave about. Just wish they had oysters on HH. It's only street parking so finding parking can be hard. We did get lucky on Saturday at 5:30pm to score a spot across the street.

    Ravioli with Shrimp
    Alia G.

    Everyone here is Great! Greg was slammed with several tables and a huge party to take care of, and he managed to balance everyone well to make sure everyone was served. His helper made sure plates were cleared, new utensils were given and water was always refilled. The kitchen was Fire! They were slammed yet somehow got food out in a timely manner.... Dare I say... Quick! They split the mixed salad for us which was very nice. The salad dressing was fantastic and I could have easily drank it from the container...or just give me a bowl of it. Ha! The Bread was HOT out of the oven!!!! And just melted in your mouth. My ahi was perfectly prepared. Although I thought the sesame crust was a little heavy handed and salty.... But that's me. I really liked the wasabi mashed potatoes as well!! I got a small taste of the husband's shrimp and it was succulent! All in all...a really nice meal. We will be back when we visit Del Mar again.

    Sbicca is a great location in downtown Del Mar where you can get views of the ocean and sunset. The menu is clearly labeled with allergens and the staff seems to be knowledgeable about accommodations. The filet mignon tacos sounded like a great idea but the execution was poor. The steak pieces were heavily salted, over cooked and too large for the fragile corn tortilla to support. The sauce also had a decent spice level. The biggest issue was the speed of service. We had to flag down the waiter multiple times to take our order and get the check. Our entree order wasn't taken until at least 20 minutes after we finished the appetizers. Overall it took 3 hours to have dinner with 4 people which was not what we wanted on a Wednesday night.
